Yesterday afternoon in Madison Park, you may have seen an unusual breaking and entering. U.S. State Department officials drilled through the locks on the gate of a Russian-owned home, while former consular employees filmed across the street.

KUOW's Paige Browning explains the ins and outs, complete with hastily shredded documents and a dispute over what country has jurisdiction on the soil of the estate.
